I agree with this. I'll also mention that Patreon's archive interface gets inconvenient quickly. A 'click to download everything' Dropbox archive is much more convenient to new supporters who haven't been following you since day one than trying to scroll through dozens or hundreds of posts here.

I admit I've had a handful of patreon subscriptions in the past with artists who didn't have everything accessible on patreon and it was... frustrating to have to keep checking twitter and tumblr and whatever else too. Having a single paid archive (be it dropbox or google drive or whatever else) like you and Psu and a few other folks do is so much more convenient and satisfying. As a bonus it can remain persistent even if you change to a different service than patreon.

Pretty much how I do things too. As a more passive supporter, the archive is probably the one benefit I use the most; but if the same content had to be distributed some other way I wouldn't be upset about it.

I mostly interface with your new art via Discord and Twitter, but delve the archives in bulk every couple months (I usually forget to do it monthly >_> ) to grab your stuff for my local files, for reference & screensaver style stuff.
